Saddle Up for St. Jude – Can you help me reach my goal?

I am asking for your help. I have set a goal to raise $250 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital this year!

I still have a long way to go…

I am participating in this event to raise money that will help St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® find new treatments for cancer, sickle cell and other catastrophic diseases. You too can help St. Jude! You have the option of donating directly to this event, donating to a participant of this event, or you can register to become a participant and do your own fundraising for St. Jude. If you would like to make a donation on behalf of me, please visit my St Jude page here: www.mysaddleupforstjude.org/jacq

Here is some interesting information about St. Jude:
- St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases.

- St. Jude is the first and only pediatric cancer center to be designated as a Comprehensive Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute.

- Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tenn, St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world.

- St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the family's inability to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fundraising organization.
